  • Thanks. I'm actually modifying it to where you need to hold the mouse button down while moving, seems to fix the issue with the mouse moving out of the window.

  • Well I've been working on my second game for a few weeks. It's a remake of the Atari Classic Kaboom!

    It will available on mobile as well, I just need to adjust the difficulty for mobile. I have a few things left to do like.

    1. Add background music

    2. Bonus score for passing levels

    3. Possible bonus points for consecutive bombs caught in a row.

    Play Kaplow!

    Art was all done by a friend of mine. He is always looking for work if anyone is interested, let me know.

  • This currently doesn't work with CocoonJS. Just wanted to mention it. I think this is a very powerful plugin as it allows us to create our own fonts to make the games look good, without the need to include fonts/css file and hope the browser they are playing on supports it.

    By doesn't work, I mean the text doesn't show up when testing with the CocoonJS launcher on my phone. Just see blank white boxes.

  • So simple, but effective. Thank you very much.

  • Say I have 6 instances of an object on the screen. Right now using the For Each Event it destroys all the objects at the same time. That's ok, but is there a way to put a timed delay between each instance being destroyed?

    This capx doesn't show much, but when the button is clicked I would like to destroy each sprite with a 1 second delay between each one.

    Thanks so much.

  • That's ok. It would also work if you could load in frames of animations like you currently can with sprites, then just call the different frames. I don't know if that is possible either :).

    Thanks.

  • Is there a way to load the image used for spritefont at runtime?

    I'm working on a game and I would love to switch the fonts from level to level (not really the font, but the color and style). Since there is no frames in Spritefont, is there a way to load in a new png in the event sheet?

    Thanks for this amazing plugin. Really great.

  • Hello Everyone.

    My name is Ed Farias. I'm a network admin by day, and father/husband by night :). I own a company called Arcade-in-a-Box, and it's been over many transformations over the years. From early on building retro arcade style control panels, then custom arcade sticks for ps3/360 for fighting games.

    I also opened up a game center/arcade where I restore classic arcade cabinets. I have a deep love for classic arcade titles from the 80s, so me an some friends created a web series on youtube called Retro Rumble. It's kind of a game show base on classic arcade games.

    I have always had a desire to build my own games, and I have been programming since very young in basic, and then onto Visual Basic and not VB 2010. However, it't not a great gaming platform so I started messing with Gamemaker and rpg maker several years ago, but I never finished anything.

    Something is different with Construct 2, and I love it.

    Thanks for the amazing program and affordable prices.

  • OK, I figured it out. Genius man, I didn't even think of using the instance variables :). Thanks again. I learn so many new things about construct every day.

  • Thanks man, that is really awesome. I'm still trying to wrap my head around exactly what you did. If I have any questions I will post.

  • I'm thinking maybe there isn't an easy way to do this LOL.

  • Yeah sorry. Completely spaced it

    For my sake, I currently don't have any of the Check for 0 conditions, only because it's a ton of work and I wanted to know if there was another way first.
